 The battle was fought between several divisions, so 1 mini= 1 platoon
would
 make it... Interesting... If you're going to present the actual battle 
at Arnheim, it's gonna be extremely boring at large scale. The paras 
will sit in the city, the panzers outside. The panzers will slowly turn 
the city into rubble until the Brit player gets the point and
surrenders...
	That's the historical battle for you...
I'm afraid my source materials are not currently available, but I can 
propably get you the original OoBs if you happen to need one.
